3.6 Pan/Tilt inversion
This function also allows to optimize the movement of Giotto’s moving head according to the ope-
rator’s position, in order to simplify all positioning work.
For access to this function press ENTER, then scroll with Up/Down until
or
appears. If SWAP is on, this means that the Pan data are being swapped
(exchanged) with Tilt data and vice versa. Select the required value with Up/Down and press
ENTER again.
3.7 Lamp elapsed time meter
Giotto’s microcomputer stores various data in its memory, including those relative to the number
of hours the lamp has been in operation. This is useful to know in advance when it’s almost time
to replace the lamp, which has a life of approximately 800 hours.
To know how long a lamp has been in operation, press ENTER and then scroll with Up/Down until
appears on the display, where xxx is the number of hours the lamp has
been used.
To reset the counter (procedure to be carried out when relamping), press ENTER until the display
starts flashing. Then press DOWN to zero the counter, or UP to restore the value (Undo function).
3.8 Lamp ignition meter
Giotto’s microcomputer stores various data in its memory, including those relative to the number
of times the lamp has been switched on. This is important because switching the lamp on need-
lessly causes stress to the components and can therefore contribute to a reduction of lamp life.
To find out how often a lamp has been switched on, press ENTER and then scroll with Up/Down
until
appears on the display, where xxx is the number of times it has been
switched on.
To reset the counter (procedure to be carried out when relamping), press ENTER until the display
starts flashing. Then press DOWN to zero the counter, or UP to restore the value (Undo function).
3.9 Fixture elapsed time meter
This function allows to know how many hours the fixture has been used. This counter cannot be
reset.
To find out how many hours a fixture has been used, press ENTER, then scroll with Up/Down until
appears on the display, where xxx is the number of hours the fixture has
been used.
This information is fundamental for programming Giotto’s maintenance, which as already mentio-
ned involves cleaning every 300 hours and a general check every 600.
